On August 11, Elon Musk took to the social media platform X to voice his concerns over alleged antitrust violations on Apple's App Store. In a post, Musk stated that xAI would be pursuing legal action against Apple, asserting that the X platform is a leading news app globally and Grok ranks fifth among all apps, yet both are excluded from the App Store's "Essentials" category. Musk suggested that this decision has political undertones and highlighted that it effectively bars any AI company other than OpenAI from achieving top rankings in the App Store, which he deemed "a clear violation of antitrust laws."
